Anykščiai Church

apaštalo evangelisto Mato bažnyčia) is a red brick Neo-Gothic church in Anykščiai, Lithuania.

[3] Following the construction of the narrow gauge railway line between Panevėžys and Švenčionėliai in the 19th century, the parish was re-developed and the church was re-built over a ten-year period between 1899 and 1909.

[3] The falling towers also damaged the roof; the interior, including the main altar and portions of the archives, was devastated by a fire in 1928.

The floor plan follows the basic principles of cathedral architecture: it has two aisles and groin vaults.

The church façade has stained glass windows which were installed between 1971–1986, credited to Marija Mackelaitė.

[7] Rimas Idzelis, an amateur artist, installed Stations of the Cross on the churchyard fence in 1982–1988.

Sculptor Arūnas Sakalauskas and architect Ričardas Krištapavičius were awarded the Lithuanian National Prize for the monument in 1994.
